Yep, took me a while to work out how to make that happen!

I just noticed that the salvage slowly drops down towards the surface in Ice Moon! TOTALLY COOL!! (but man, that map is hard!)

@estoyche no. No mod works with the current version of Complex.

@spoonfrog Opp...sorry after checking again, a map with black hole back ground come from another mod. BTW, can you make more dark map like Rogue Planet but for 4-6 players.

I would like to make a background with a Pulsar Star in it - its on my list of backgrounds to make... Not sure it is possible to do what I want with the HWRM engine though.

See the description for info about using the maps/backgrounds.

Spoonfrog how about a map with a Pulsar background like from eve onlines wormhole systems?

Also i was wondering if i could get your permission to folded your map pack into my Community Patch mod, (Giving credit ofc).
I would also need to change/add some resources to work with the mod but i can do that no problem if i get your permission to add the pack to the mod..
